Fast and featureful

  • November 06, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Postgres is a fast database packed with features and always getting better. Most of the time I just need to use ANSI SQL, but sometimes I need something special to solve a problem and postgres always seems to have just what I need. The licensing is good too, where I'd be afraid of getting locked into vendor-specific features and getting stuck with Oracle, but with postgres I don't have to fear the vendor providing the software.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be a bit more work to get things set up vs something like mysql. The bit of extra learning curve is well worth it though to get a proper full-featured RDBMS.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Storing data with strong consistency and being about to step outside the usual relational system when needed.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use it.

Validate your use case that it surely requires Relations DB or not. If it does than 'PostgreSQL' is best bet for you.

Convenient tool for end users

  • October 30, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Used PostgreSQL for more than 4 years on 2 different jobs. Convenient and easy to learn. All main stream functionalities are there. No fancy add-ons.
What do you dislike about the product?
When I used the software it did not support tabbed query editor, so I had to switch query windows fairly frequently, adding a little difficulty to use. Now I guess they must have changed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Exploring relational database - designing reports and downloading data for modeling purposes. The benefits included easy access to database and easy to manipulate intermediate results.

A serious DB for serious usage

PostgreSQL's reliability and robustness is impressive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing comes to mind when thinking about negatives.

High volume data storage with fast lookup.

Best opensource DB

  • October 29, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best free DB to use. One of the most stable and with very active community.
Compatibility with Geo Spatial objects, JSON etc.
Unlimited database size with 32TB tables, 1.6TB max row size, 1GB max field size, and unlimited rows per table.
There are so many extensions to use with PostgreSQL.
What do you dislike about the product?
Coming from enterprise RDBMS software like Oracle, some of the features are not very intuitive.
Initial learning takes sometime coming from MySQL type systems.
Configuration changes needed restart.
Handling WALs may be complex sometimes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Main use case was storing and handling JSON data. Also to support geo objects.
Another requirement is to have the database on AWS RDS.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
PostgreSQL is a free DB to use. Very robust and scalable DB with all required regular RDBMS features.

Simple to use, Easy SQL management tool.

  • October 27, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Coming from a MySQL background it is very similar and allows me to manage my data in any way I see fit.
What do you dislike about the product?
The PostgreSQL management tools out there today aren't the best. It's hard to find a GUI tool that allows me to manage my data simply.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have a lot of data that I need to keep historical track of and PostgreSQL keeps that all in one place that allows me to keep track of it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are used to MySQL and are unable to use that for your database management needs, PostgreSQL is a great alternative. With all the other tools that are being offered right now, AWS and GAE, this is still light weight and open source.
